Wow who is that uber douche bag interviewing him?

It's also funny to see Bill get uncomfortable around the hot chick. Billed as the greatest comedian of his generation he could get any chick he wanted it he'd just relax a bit.

In my opinion, she was ready to say yes if he asked her out for some gymnastics.

There is talk about a Bill Hicks movie. Here is someones comments about potential actor considerations:

Jack Black would be the worst. I'd rather see his unfunny ass beaten and left in a ditch somewhere. No way the great name of Bill Hicks will be soiled by that goofball.

My pick is Robert Downey Jr or Paul Giamatti ...with Phillip Seymour Hoffman coming in for a close third. They'd all do the role some justice - especially, Downey.

I am not into RDjr these days, but then again, he is a great actor and he has that tormented soul experience. I just wonder if he could pull off the caring side of Bill Hicks. I would rather see Paul Giamatti or Phillip Seymour Hoffman do it. I can see either one of them talking about acid trips and screaming at the audience in the spotlight of a dark stage.

Hmmm. I think you're right that the other two have a better track record for exuding compassion in their performances, but I strongly believe Downey can do anything he wishes; even empathy. The guy is just magic when in front of a camera.

Still, all good choices. Any actor would jump at the chance to play Kicks, I'll bet.
